🧜🏻‍♀️ MerMay Blog Hop 2020 🧜🏻‍♀️

🧜‍♀️ Wish Upon a Starfish 🧜‍♀️
card by Leigh 

🧜🏻‍♀️ Today I’m sharing a birthday card I made for my sister using a smaller version of my Copic painting I blogged the other day featuring MerMae and greenery and bubbles from my Ocean Scenery set.


 I coloured MerMae with Copics and covered her with clear Wink of Stella sparkle pen for lots of pretty shimmer.  For even more magical sparkle and a visual treat in dimension and textures I also used Viva Pearl magic transparent blue gel pen on the greenery and white on the bubbles and die cut the Memory Box dies, Oceana Corner and Deep Sea Corner, from white glitter cardstock.


I wrote the "Wish Upon a Starfish" sentiment by hand with a peach Sharpie pen.  I also used Crafter's Companion Shell stamps and dies and added Crystal Stickles glitter on those and edged the sentiment and card panel too!  I layered the mermaid panel onto a sheet of gorgeous peach pearlescent cardstock with pop dots and mounted everything onto a folded card I made from white cardstock.


 The photos just don't do all the magical sparkle justice so here's a little video showing how pretty it is in real lifeπŸ˜‰
